[PATCH] dm free minor after unlink gendisk

["Jun'ichi Nomura" <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>]

Hello,

free_dev() releases minor number before unregistering gendisk.
It creates a window where two registered gendisk with same number
exist, which will cause problem.

Typically, if you run the following script,
you will hit WARN_ON() in kref_get().

#!/bin/sh
(while dmsetup create a --notable; do dmsetup remove a; done) &
(while dmsetup create b --notable; do dmsetup remove b; done) &

Attached patch fixes this problem.

minor number should be freed after del_gendisk().
Otherwise, there could be a window where 2 registered gendisk
has same minor number.
